Stomach flu time 2
So the flu season has hit us hard this year. Right before Christmas we went through the stomach bug me and big man spent 2 days heaving and sleeping the funk off. It was aweful and I really did not want to repeat it. So who would have thought that we would go through it again TOGETHER! So it started out with my little man last week. He threw up one night, had a feaver for 3 or 4 hours the next morning and we are still battling the diarrhea. No big deal it never really slowed him down. Big guy on the other hand started throwing up out of the blue on monday morning. Approximately every 20 minutes or so the poor guy couldnt hold down water. He was sick so he asked me to "call the doctor" which is what I did. So off we went so that the doc could tell me he was sick. The good thing was they gave him a shot to help with the nausea and script for suppositories if that didnt get rid of it. Although he was not happy about the shot it did help. He vomitting slowed down but didnt stop so I got the pleasure of giving him a suppository. After two rounds of suppositories he could keep things down just in time for bed. So hubs and I relaxed for a bit and went to bed just in time for little man to wake up at 11:30. So I was up for another hour and half trying to get him to sleep all the while my stomach is starting to feel questionable. Around 2 am I passed him off to his daddy and I crashed on the couch. I think I slept but I really dont know, what I do know is around 4 I started vomitting. So after a very long night I finally went to sleep around 5 got up at 9 and had to deal with sick kiddos. Big guy ran a fever of 102 for 24 hours that I couldnt get down. After several rounds of tylenol and motrin he finally starting feeling better. Since we just got the hang of potty training he said he needed to go "peed" I had in pull ups cause you can only expect so much. So we go to the bathroom and here comes the diarrhea. Which prompted him to stand up look in his potty and say "chocolate milk in there." My only humor for the second round of the 2 day stomach bug but you never know what they are going to say!
